Description
I am the creatureWho lurks in the dark
The one you never notice
But who's always there
Just observing the world
Without really understanding it
And waiting for the day
The day you notice me
And invite me into the light

I always do that, I just write whatever comes and have no idea what it means
But I'm not that good at poetry, I'd say I like his more than my own

Fairly interesting. "Share [light] with those who have none."
You say, "Come to the dark side, we have cookies."
I say, "I have some milk. Care to join this side?"
We look at each other then share the cookies and milk.

This could be interpreted so many ways.
Don't you love those thoughts, though? That are just... BAM. So you write, and then you're like... what does that mean? where did that come from?

You're right. Different people, different interpretations.
Yeah, I feel that sometimes, when I read poems I wrote days before.

I sure hope so

I take it as the creature being a person's true self - the self that they hide - waiting for the day that they can be free.

It's a possible interpretation of this piece. But I was thinking about an outcast who's looking for someone who can accept him and, in a way, save him from his own demons.
But your perspective is also interesting.

Hmms I can see your interpretation too. I always suck at interpreting things which is why I try to not do it often.

That doesn't make your perspective any less valid. And you should share it because most people like to know what others think about their work.

I share when I can

I believe it means you want to be included and accepted by good people to help "pull" you out of all your depression and problems you've got.

Precisely. That's what I was thinking while writing it. Looks like you can read my mind... (You can't, can you?)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I can't, but it does seem like it sometimes.

Spooky... It means you know (or deduced) a lot about me...

Strange. I think you already know more about me than most people who know me in person.

That's not super surprising, to me at least... You're more open with people online.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That's true. My thoughts and worries have to go somewhere, right? Better share them with the world.

I like how you ended it on a hopeful note

I like to end it with a bit of hope sometimes. And thanks.

Kinda like how I work. I don't usually speak unless spoken to unless the time calls for it.

Yeah... I do the same.
